Victims of an alleged swindle hold placards attacking two companies which they said lured them into investing in seminar packages. They have asked the Department of Special Investigation (DSI) to accept it as a special case. According to their petition, around 40,000 people across the country fell prey to two companies providing packages of investment seminars. She said her family initially did not trust the firms but she changed her mind after attending an event where Mr Phudis, who claimed to be a doctor, persuaded people to join. She put more money in the scheme until her investment reached five million baht.
